|
00:29:42 |
|
|
|
Enhancing Usability II
The second video on usability we'll learn how to enhance our user interfaces by implementing drag-n-drop operations along with how to design MDI (multiple document) user interfaces. We'll also look at how to persist application settings between uses.
|
00:31:08 |
|
|
|
Asynchronous Operations
